Re: Fatigue, Weight loss, Can't tolerate supplements.

PTH is the hormone the parathyroid's excrete. I'm sure you should be able to get that tested without having to travel to Tampa.
If your PTH levels show elevated (look on their tampa website to get an idea of TRUE reference ranges for normal PTH production - or email them) - the guys at tampa have excellent scanning diagnostic tools - the best in the U.S apparently to see if one of the glands has overgrown and producing PTH hormone like mad!

With your serum test being .1 higher than normal - i wouldn't know if that's something to still keep an eye on. Sometimes i think being open and being aware so much can throw the body out - it's wise to eliminate certain causes.

My symptoms when i hit crash-point were raging. I'd wake with instant impending doom feeling...as if an announcement had been made the biggest bomb was going to drop on the world. I constantly kept thinking - why this feeling? WHY?!!
Constipation changed to diahorrea, frequent headaches and brain-fog. (throughout life headaches have rarely bothered me!)
Night sweats - drenching me and the bed - every night for months. I'd wake up sometimes - change for dry clothes and get back into bed and wake up again in the morning soaked again.
I could sleep fine but wake up instantly in the middle of the night wide-awake and not sleep for a few hours.
Fast forward 6 months, now i struggle to sleep before 4am. I could sleep forever!

My hips, knees, lower back, thoracic spine twinged and ached. Especially lower back. I was working physically so thought i'd pulled something.
Muscles would twinge - eyes, aswell as back.

Chest pains would twinge more frequently. Sometimes severe enough to take the breath away. I would have to shallow breathe until the 'attack' passed, normally a few minutes.

Appetite would rage or go completely. I've always had cold hands and feet but it became cold feet and calves and cold clammy hands.
Nervousness, anxiety - episodes of extreme frustration and anger too. I couldn't 'control my emotions' like we all do without thinking, normally.

Crying episodes became so frequent. Despite my life experiences i've never been one to cry - except if i'm in physical pain! But god, i was crying over the smallest thing. My friend told me their horse died of old age and i cried all day.

I knew something was occurring but didn't know what. When fear is felt symptoms like anxiety and nervousness get worse, so they did.

I couldn't lift anything - became incredibly weak after being so strong (in hyper mode for years before)...i looked nothing at 120lbs but could lift my 10 stone boyfriend by his hips 3 foot off the ground and throw him! I couldn't even manage a 10kg box in the end - always needing assistance.
The weakness also became of the mind - i couldn't concentrate...focus on anything. If you knew me , most would tell you i'm kinda OCD and have intense concentration and will-power. All that has completely melted away.

I would get heat flushing around my neck and my neck would palpate. Now i know that's where the thyroid is. I would also get intense heat patches flare-up on my lower back and thoracic spine.

Nail fungus on my feet suddenly raged too - i always thought candida was responsible for that but i am learning that it also could be connected with AF.

Night vision went incredibly fast - i live rurally so night time is a time i star-gaze and photograph the moon - but my eyes would take a good 5 minutes to adjust in comparison to adjusting within 30 seconds before.

My hair has become thin - i don't like to brush it instead coil it up in a bun otherwise i'll brush it all out and be left with nothing - it's one of the worst psychological symptoms for a woman i think.

An internal, wobbly, shivery feeling that never goes is what i hate most. My legs...thighs wobble and shake - inside. Some days it's worse than others.
I hate to feel so physically weak.

I had a day of 'crash' - as i had kept pushing myself to just 'carry on' with my over-burdoned life. The day my body yelled 'NO!' to me i got out of bed and ended up on the floor...my legs became so weak i couldn't walk. Inside thigh muscles just wobbled and shook, barely able to hold myself up. I tried with my mind to get going but couldn't. I then became bed-ridden most days. Losing weight further.

My doctor put it ALL down to Depression as the root cause. I was too shocked to talk so i cried knowing i wasn't going to get help from him. He then, because i was emotionally broken insisted i needed counselling and anti-D's.

My family background is in psychology - have a huge awareness of it's implications and effects - even voluteered in life helping manic depressives. Despite all my symptoms Depression was not one of the major ones - i really wanted to live and get on with life - i wanted my zest for life back again - and a body to match it!

I also have a sluggish liver, mercury issues and candida so have those related symptoms.

I'm still yet to discover if mercury is the root cause of all these imbalances. I know i won't get rid of candida while mercury is locked in my system.
I've done mercury tests which were positive - and suffer with bruxism since i had the fillings at 14. I grind so loud to wake up my BF (never myself) - i have 2 of the 4 remaining so assume i've ground the other 2 out and swallowed the fragments in my sleep. Also 2 composite fillings have disintegrated.

Finding a route cause is my priority. Alot on here know the value of seeking out that route cause and learning how their cascade of body imbalances have occured - to begin to 'undo' the damage.
One has to be realistic with a combination of imbalances to know that years of damage, possibly decades, is going to take a handful of years to find our way home again, to enjoy full health again.

In the new year i will get my mercury removed. Just to eliminate that beast!

I've written quite abit i know - but it's just a snap-shot of an experience that has been unfolding for at least 6 years. There are other symptoms that come and go i haven't mentioned.

It is really important to trace back in your life to when you had perhaps a massive infection - or a time when you remember you 'haven't been quite yourself since...' as these can be very revealing in clues to help you find a root cause.
Of course stress is a huge one - and i embraced sooo much these past 4 years...that tipped an already hyper state into plunging hypo.
Stress alone - i know it sounds corny - but i now believe it kills. I never could understand before my experiences how chronic long-term stress brings down even the most determined body and mind.

Please write more about your symptoms and journey. I've found it hard to be 'objective' with my own imbalances - but have always helped my friends so easily! Sometimes one post on this site can open up a gem of a realisation that helps us on the road to recovery :-)

Without curezone i would feel so lost - i have huge respect for everyone on here.
